Using your Guild D-240E guitar is easy. First, make sure it's properly tuned using the Guild GBB1 Butterbean Tuning Machines. Plug it into an amplifier if you want to use the electric features with the Guild/Fishman Sonitone GT-1 electronics. When not in use, keep it in a dry and safe place. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures and humidity. Clean the strings regularly with a soft cloth to keep them in good condition. If you need to adjust the truss rod, use the 4mm Allen Key carefully. Replace the strings when they start to sound dull or lose their tension. Remember, the case is sold separately, so consider getting one to protect your guitar when traveling.
